English Lacrosse Website & Lacrosse TV

credentials

The English Lacrosse Association is responsible for managing the sport of Lacrosse in England including both male and female Lacrosse across all age groups as well as camps, Pop Lacrosse, INTO Lacrosse and Team England.

English Lacrosse has a long-term vision…

To make Lacrosse one of the major team sports in England by substantially increasing participation for all.

They came to Skylab with a straight forward request:

“How can we build a website that will focus on community, bring our top athletes forward as heroes and representatives of the sport and overall make people excited about playing Lacrosse?”

To meet the goals of English Lacrosse, Skylab focused on the following areas:

A custom membership platform was developed to help English Lacrosse manage the vast network of Lacrosse participants such as coaches, players and fans.

Skylab integrated the Lacrosse Talk magazine into the new website, adding fixtures, events, images and video content to help give Lacrosse fans in the UK an online home to share experiences. Social media is at the core of the website and adds value as well as deepens the engagement between the NGB and the community.

ClubFinder was introduced to give website visitors easy access to the various clubs located around England.

In order to help revenue generation, an e-commerce system was integrated with the website to help English Lacrosse provide visitors with access to quality Lacrosse equipment as well purchase courses and camps.

Lacrosse TV was integrated with the website using Skylab’s MediaTank video platform to give English Lacrosse the tools necessary to manage and deliver high definition video to the visitors.

Skylab reached into their vast experience with National Governing Bodies and developed a new website and design for the English Lacrosse Association to bring an up-to-date, modern and engaging website that is capable of showing off the energy and passion of the sport.
